Sherry Boone News

The New York stage is often a haven for self-destructive couples on display, but rarely is that self-destruction so bluntly in view as in Rajiv Joseph's intriguing Gruesome Playground Injuries.  The work of this imaginative playwright, who'll be making his Broadway debut later this season with his Pulitzer finalist, A Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo, grows more interesting with each new piece to hit town and director Scott Ellis' darkly funny Second Stage production is terrifically unsettling.

Lost in the Stars, the second Encores! production of the New York City Center season, running February 3 - 6 at City Center, will feature Chuck Cooper, Daniel Breaker, Patina Miller, Sharon Washington, Daniel Gerroll, John Douglas Thompson and Sherry Boone. Lost in the Stars has music by Kurt Weill and book and lyrics by Maxwell Anderson. It will be directed by Gary Griffin and choreographed by Chase Brock, with music direction by Rob Berman. Broadway Beat got an exclusive sneak peek!

'I've written a play about four African American women who changed the face of history,' Rajendra Ramoon Maharaj told me bluntly one day during rehearsal for Bubbling Brown Sugar, a concert revival of the show that put Amas on the map all those moons ago, that he was directing for us a couple years back. 'Who are they?' I asked. 'You never heard of them, I promise', he replied. 'Wanna bet?' I said. 'How much?' he challenged. 'I'll do a reading of it IF I lose', was my offer. 'VERY COOL!' he says … 'Here they are: Eliza Anna Grier, Geraldine Pittman Woods, Jane Cooke Wright, and Evelyn Boyd Granville.'
